Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Break the cable at none against Count and Bounce's shown. Break the cable also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Count and Bounce's advantage is ratings volume (19K vs 109) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
